About Brad Johnson

James Bradley "Brad" Johnson is a former American football quarterback who played for seventeen seasons in the National Football League. Johnson grew up in Black Mountain, North Carolina. At Florida State University, Johnson originally played college basketball before switching to football in his third year. The Minnesota Vikings drafted Johnson in the ninth round of the 1992 NFL Draft. He spent seven seasons with the Vikings and two seasons with the Washington Redskins before becoming the starting quarterback of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2001. He led the Buccaneers to the Super Bowl XXXVII title. He played for the Buccaneers for four seasons from 2001 to 2004, the Minnesota Vikings for two more seasons from 2005 to 2006, and the Dallas Cowboys for two seasons from 2007 to 2008.

I think he's a great player. I can't speak for Brad, but I think if it would be me, it'd be motivation. He's taken three different teams to the playoffs, one to the Super Bowl, and he's been to the Pro Bowl on two different teams. At some point, even Rodney Dangerfield gets some respect.

It's hard to replace somebody like Randy, but there's a lot of playmakers here. Daunte plays very well within this system. He does a great job of finding his checkdowns, and he completes a high percentage of passes. He makes a lot of plays with his feet and plays with a lot of enthusiasm.
